Nokia 5630 XpressMusic: UPnP AV support??[edit]

I can't find any source to verify the Nokia 5630 XM supports UPnP AV. I am looking to purchase the Nokia 5800 and all indications are that it does NOT support UPnP AV (although the specs list it as including Wifi/UPnP, but no mention of UPnP AV).

Philips Media Manager[edit]

"Philips Media Manager" seems to be dead and gone, all I find is Streamium (read more at http://www.streamium.com/sv/se/Streamium_overview.html). Can someone find it elsewhere? --Fat64 (talk) 03:20, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

UPnP needs some pictures. For those of us who don't use any of this software or hardware but would like to know "How do I get internet movies from my PC to my TV" it would be good to know what cables and devices are needed between the PC and the TV. Yes, I understand that all the 'nomemclature' explains that but...what does it mean? A little 101 hand holding at the beginning would be useful. —Preceding unsigned comment added by DGDanforth (talkcontribs) 22:34, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

XBMC[edit]

Now that XBMC is officially being distributed on Windows, Mac and Linux, I think this page needs to be updated. -007bond aka Matthew G aka codingmasters 08:24, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Review/test[edit]

I found this test of network drives in a Dutch WP:RS. See e.g. the comparison chart on the last page. Untrue Believer (talk) 23:55, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Confusion of terms[edit]

There appears to be some confusion in the meaning of terms, especially in the UPnP media render hardware section. For example the XBox360 and PS3 are able to play media, but they are not UPnP Media Renderers as they do not implement or export the UPnP MediaRenderer device. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.86.252.28 (talk) 12:47, 23 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, they also talk about ControlPoints being able to render AV: "UPnP MediaServer ControlPoint is the UPnP-client (a 'master' device) that function as digital audio/video players" which is not the case, only a MediaRenderer can play audio/video. The PS3 is technically not a UPnP device, it's neither a MediaRenderer (does not let other control points see it), a ControlPoint (cannot control other MediaRenderers), nor a MediaServer (does not serve up data). 69.17.45.168 (talk) 18:21, 25 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

DLNA ???[edit]

Many of the software clients claim DLNA, but from what I can tell, only one does - Twonkymedia. Does someone want to clean up these rouge claims of compliance? The ONLY list is dlna.org —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.174.171.21 (talk) 21:30, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
